Hey everybody!  I'm back.  This time I got to sit down with my buddy Ian a.k.a. StuntMustard to talk about the SNES classic A Link To The Past and why it's one of the best designed games ever made.  Enjoy! Drop Ian a follow on twitter @StuntMUSTARD and on his twitch channel at www.twitch.tv/stuntmustard Theme Song by Wes Locher

Episode 22 is finally here and it was a doozy.  I talked with my friend, musician Travis Adams (My Hotel Year, Inkwell) about his memories of the 8-Bit classics Metroid and Castlevania.  We touched on a lot more than that including No Man's Sky, some stories from when he produced a record for my old band Early Next Year and the inspiration behind the first album from his new project Sinking State, "The Absent Observer" This episode closes with a snippet of the NES inspired track Varia Suit by Travis's previous band, Field Kit.  Enjoy!

It's time for Season 2 of A Game To Remember, my first conversation of the year was with Independent Game Developer Ami Charnoff who is hard at work creating an original 3D Platformer called Teddy and Bo: Search For The Dreamcatcher We talked about her experiences over the past 3 years she's spent working on the game and also one of her inspriations, the Gamecube classic Super Mario Sunshine. To stay up to date with what's going on with Teddy and Bo follow @teddyandbo on Twitter and check out the first trailer for the game at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8NiljPIO98&feature=youtu.be  

and just like that we've come to the final episode of the year.  As a little year end treat for everyone, I decided to do the most narcissistic thing possible and have someone come interview me for my own podcast.  Charlie Bowie, hilarious comic and one of the hosts of the Poking The Bear podcast, indulged me in this ridiculousness and talked to me about one of my favorite games Super Mario RPG!  Enjoy and happy new year.

I'm finally back with Episode 19!  Yeah....I said episode 20 in the intro, sue me.  I sat down with comedian Rey Reyes to talk about playing Final Fantasy VII at a very young age and excessive difficulty in games.  Enjoy! Please pay special attention to the intro of this episode, there's some people that I needed to thank for helping me get the show where it is today, I don't know how I would have done it without them.

Bonus episode! My 9 year old heard I had a Podcast and wanted to be on it, so I thought what the heck, let's see what happens. What happened was an adorable mini-sode where we discussed some of her favorite Nintendo Switch games.  This was a quick episode, but consider it a bonus.  I'll be back with a full episode on Thursday Theme Song Credit: Wes Locher Artwork Credit: Lorraine Cornillie

Episode 17 is here with the mastermind behind Orlamdo (not a typo) Studio, Mickey Mick!  We chat about possibly the 2 most diametrically opposed franchises in video game history.  We start with a dive into Civilization and the games of Sid Meier and end on the lunacy of Saint's Row.  It's a fun one.

Episode 14 is here!  Today I talked with my friend and sometimes video game squadmate Marcus Abell about Call of Duty: MW3.  We get into some great discussions about meeting lifelong friends through shooting people in the face (virtually of course), what has changed with this newest generation of consoles and also the quickest way to, deservedly in this case, receive rage filled messages from another player for weeks on end.  Enjoy!

Technical Issues?  No matter we still hit Thursday by a couple minutes if I stop typing this soon. This week I was joined by local comic Casey Bryant Crawford to talk about an absolute classic, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2. We had a great talk about his love for this game drove him away from playing video games.  Huh?  I promise it makes sense.  Great conversation, hope you guys like it.

Surprise!  Episode 10 is here.  This time I sat down with my mom up in the house I grew up in in Bellville, OH to talk about her memories with games and also confirm or deny some of the early memories I had from when I was very young that shaped the gamer I am today.  Enjoy!

Would you like the good news or the bad news first?  Bad news first?  Good choice.  Due to this bastard of a hurricane that's rolling through, I won't be able to record the next batch of episodes this weekend so look for Episode 10 sometime in the first week of October. Now that unpleasantness is out of the way, enjoy Episode 9 with my guest Javaris Temple.  We have some friendly debate about Batman: Arkham Knight that I think you'll enjoy.
